# Faith against reason: evidentialism, doxastic will, and the grammar of belief

This is a historical-philosophical survey of the concept of fideism (faith versus reason in religious epistemology, evidentialism, doxastic voluntarism, Wittgensteinian language-games) and has no engagement with emitters, receivers, waves, codices, or diffraction — the only apparent rhymes (e.g. Wittgenstein's internal 'grammar' of faith vs. Note 03's 'rule not organ') are surface pattern-matches between unrelated technical vocabularies, not a genuine test of any ideamorphism proposition.

## Context

### Declined — `no-purchase` [@source]

### Propositional grid [@p31]

> **Read this grid.** “Not evaluated” does **not** mean the source has nothing to say about that proposition. It means **the reading did not instruct it**. That is not a result, and it counts in no denominator. A silence, by contrast, is a finding: the reading touched the proposition without concluding, or noted its absence itself.

**Not evaluated (37)** — P1, P2, P3, P3a, P4, P5, P6, P7, P8, P9, P10, P11, P12, P13, P14, P14a, P14b, P15, P16, P16a, P17, P18, P18a, P19, P19a, P20, P21, P22, P23, P24, P25, P26, P27, P28, P29, P30, P31

*Overall verdict: **DECLINED:no-purchase** — taxonomy of the August 2026 pass, predating the move to relational verdicts. Kept as metadata: the gap between the two forms is data, not residue. This reading’s judgement is in the grid above.*
